And he's right, the terrorists operate in cells around the world such that if one goes down, it has no effect on the next one two states away. Bin Laden was more a figure head at this point and was much like a celebrity to jihadists. No doubt this is a psychological victory for the United States. However, the big question now is whether or not this is a viable tactic, pitting nations against individuals? Bin Laden was and has been the face of Al-Qaeda for decades, but it has been asked if our handling of the terror leader was ethical. The truth is that he was living in comfort in a rich Pakistani suburb for the last few years of his life, surrounded by his aids, hardly a lone wolf against the entire western world. Secondly, despite his loss of communication (the compound had no phone or internet access) demoting him to more of a figure head, bin Laden's revered status as a former leader and terror mastermind made him not only a slight strategic

s Randy Marsh said in South Park Season 14 episode 9, "We got him!" On May 1st 2011, Osama bin Laden was killed by the Navy Seals' elite counter-terrorism unit, Team Six, which is comprised of 20 Navy Seals under the of the command of CIA Director Leon Panetta. Briefed on the target identity during the flight in, the members of Team Six engaged bin Laden and three subordinates, who used women as shields, in a 40 minute firefight on Sunday night. Upon the president's announcement, hundreds gathered outside to the White House to celebrate in a collective sigh of relief. However, there is still worry as to if bin Laden is more dangerous as a man or a martyr as his followers may strike back. But we cannot stop and celebrate indefinitely. Bill Pruden, Head of Upper School and former History Instructor, offers the quite

CBS news reported that many are critical of this decision. Muslim clerics claim that the U.S. violated Islamic burial practice while family members of 9/11 victims saw it as a sign of respect that bin Laden did not deserve. It also provides many skeptics with ammunition for a conspiracy theory. President Obama explained the decision on the May 8th broadcast of 60 Minutes as follows: "The decision to bury the body of Osama bin Laden at sea was a respectful and appropriate way that contrasted sharply with the terrorist's disregard for the 3,000 people who perished - some never to be found - in the 9/11 massacre he masterminded." He explained that Americans handled the situation in a way that reflects our country's belief system.

t isn't uncommon for there to be "writers" in high school � kids who spend their free time hidden in a novel or crouched over a notebook jotting down thoughts and poetry and stories. Published writers in high school, however, are almost impossible to come across. Michael Santos, '11, is one of those rare cases. Santos began writing at a very young age. He wrote his first book in second grade, about dinosaurs. "I could spell the word `paleontologist,' but I couldn't spell `dirt,'" he notes. Santos' first published book Fire at Will, came out earlier this year. Fire at Will surrounds the deaths of several US Congressmen and, along with them, a hidden scheme to bring America to ruins. The idea came to Santos while sitting at Milton's, a local pizza and Italian restaurant. He grabbed a napkin and started jotting down character names, choosing to name one of his characters � Oscar Perez � after his waiter that night. Though clearly a mystery novel, some comedic relief is found in those various character names. Many of them reference different Ravenscroft faculty members. The main characters, FBI agents looking into the murders, are named James Sharp and Michelle Moore. Santos says that these characters don't necessarily resemble their faculty counterparts in personality; rather they are characters who play off their counterparts and who are funny to imagine as the faculty members themselves. As he announced in April, Fire at Will's first week of sales did not go to Santos himself, rather to a cause close to his heart. The Wounded Warrior Project received all proceeds from that week, which will go to help meet the needs of wounded veterans. In the interview for this article, Santos stopped for a moment to explain how medical care at veteran's hospitals is almost never as good as medical care at other non-military hospitals, and how much of a travesty he finds that to be. "They need people looking out for them, and raising money helps a little bit," Santos said of the men and women who have been injured serving our country. Proceeds from Fire at Will now go directly to Santos, and the novel can be purchased on lulu.com, which is the website he used to publish it. Fire at Will is, of course, not Santos' only piece of writing. Though it is the only
Santos' first novel, Fire at Will.
novel he has written and published, he has also written three other plays, one of which he just finished this month and another of which was performed by the Ravenscroft drama department this past March. Though most of his writings are mysteries, his favorite, Ballad of Morris and Vinny, is an absurdist comedic play. Set in Shakespearean times, it follows two detectives who are trying to cross a river in order to investigate a crime. A sequence of surely laughable events occurs, and ultimately they never get across to their goal. The Tavern, another of Santos' plays, was put on stage for the first time in March. Last spring, Santos went to Mr. Sharp, Middle and Upper School Drama Instructor, and asked if the Upper School Drama department would be interested in performing a play Santos was to write. Sharp agreed, and in the fall, Santos returned to school with a script in hand. Performed in the young peoples' theatre, The Tavern showcased Upper School drama students playing the parts of various characters stranded in one supposedly haunted tavern, observing odd behaviors and violent events. All under Santos' direction, the play, according to Melina Gozzo, '11, and many other audience members, was a hit. "I couldn't believe that our own classmate had written it," Gozzo marveled, "He made it funny and scary all at the same time, and I can't wait to see what else he can come up with." Santos attributes much of his skill with words to Kevin Flinn, a new member of the Upper School English faculty this year. Santos says Flinn's creative writing class, which he is currently taking, is the "best English class [he's] ever taken." Santos says Flinn has helped him in "how to make every sentence a little stronger," just by playing with the words. Another source of his development as a writer over the years has been reading, both intense writings such as those by Dostoevsky, and more personally interesting mystery novels. When asked if he had anything else to add, Santos gave a piece of advice for all aspiring writers out there: "Anybody can write a book if you put your mind to it," all it takes is patience and a lot of reading. Santos will be attending UNC-Chapel Hill next year, where he plans to major in either drama or communications and minor in creative writing. He intends to keep writing novels, screenplays, and maybe even some songs, but he will definitely continue writing stage plays "'cause that's just too darn fun to stop."

bin Laden's takedown by President Obama and his Navy Seals has been all over the news, but media is also focused on something a little less shocking and urgent. Once again, the news has been filled with questions about whether President Obama's birth certificate is legitimate. According to PolitiFact.com, the document has been recently released to the public and it states that he was born in Hawaii. Emerging political candidate Donald Trump sends mixed messages about how authentic he believes it is. Trump claims that he is the only person that Obama has personally shown the document to before releasing it. He says that he will have to "assess the document's
authenticity," but also says he is confident that the document is real and is more concerned with important issues. Clearly, he has mixed opinions of the topic. There is still controversy over whether or not the document is legitimate. Many people claim that the Hawaiian birth certificate may not even be the same as other US birth certificates. However, Hawaiian documents are recognized as legitimate US documents. Obama tells the media that he is confused about this issue. He expressed his wishes that America would focus on more relevant topics like the recent death of Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden than the authenticity of his birth certificate. "Obama's place of birth is not arguable. The issue serves as
a distraction from more pressing issues and there is no way it could be a conspiracy," explained Lindsey Ringenbach, Government Instructor and College Counselor. Head of Upper School Bill Pruden agreed as he described politics as "toxic." He also completely believes that Obama's birth certificate is legitimate. Obama published the document three years ago, and
again on April 27, 2011, but there are still many doubts and questions surrounding the authenticity of his birth certificate. Some of the claims being made about President Obama are that he is an undercover Muslim and his real name is Muhammad. Other claims being made suggest he is not a real American citizen and refuses to say the Pledge of Allegiance. Obama claims that these are just rumors and

ridiculous ones at that. Although there are many theories about a presidential conspiracy, "there is not one shred of evidence to disprove PolitiFact's conclusion that the candidate's name is Barack Hussein Obama, or to support allegations that the birth certificate he released isn't authentic."

ue to the weather conditions this year, the Service Day almost had to be moved and the worry was that it would be completely cancelled. However, in the end, the service day went ahead on Thursday April 28th. Minor adjustments had to be made such as situating all the students at the warehouse instead of working outside as planned.
his year 64 of the freshman class members went to "House of Joy," an organization which sorts, packages and processes pallets of medical supplies for people in need in Congo, Africa. Gregg Luna, Dr. John deTreville, Mike Erikson, Susann Heckman, Greg Wilson and Kevin Flinn accompanied their respective advisory groups on this service outing. This year, they were given a goal which they greatly exceeded by processing 18 pallets for Congo and even had a little competitive spirit among the teams as to who could process the most. Luna's advisory won, processing 7 pallets themselves, with one pupil, Mike Fagan (known as "Big Mike" to his friends and advisor) making over 50 boxes all by himself. Carol Ellis, President of House of Joy, emailed Ravenscroft to thank them and described the students as "hilarious and devoted."

The House provides a "home-away-fromhome" for families, whose children are getting treatment for serious illnesses or injuries. Letting the parents stay close to their children brings comfort to both and the house has been invaluable to many families. On the service day, the freshman went and assisted the helpers in looking after and providing comfort for the children and their parents.

he first Special Olympics were held in 1968 in Chicago. Through the years, Special Olympics has grown, and in the early days of spring can be seen at Ravenscroft School. This event happens here once a year and it gives special needs kids the opportunity to feel the excitement of competing in a loving environment. Athletes compete against each other and are rewarded with a ribbon as their names are announced by Ravenscroft student volunteers. The athletes are often accompanied by Ravenscroft students and the entire event relies upon the members of the sophomore and juniors classes. Students help by escorting the athletes to their events as well as cheering them on their way to success. Torin Saccoccio, `12, described his experience with this buddy as one that "requires constant focus and vigilance but extremely rewarding in the end." The event gives students a great opportunity to help others and to experience what their service means so much to the kids.

and various other social networking sites are looked down upon by many adults and parents as a "waste of time." In Libya, protesters started their revolt as a result of Facebook groups all conveying a desire for change in the government. When Libyan government officials discovered that the revolt had been rooted in Facebook, they quickly blocked the site. When "Libya" is searched on Facebook, many different protest groups such as "All for Libya" and the "Libyan Youth Movement" pop up. In this case, Facebook served as an influential contributor in a nationwide movement that resulted in massive change, not just a place for small talk between a man and woman who graduated in the same high school class. More recently in the United States, Facebook has been extremely informative surrounding the killing of Osama bin Laden. Many people discovered bin Laden's death not through the television or papers, but over Facebook as friends and family members posted statuses such as "Everyone needs to be watching their TV now" or "God Bless America Osama is dead." On Twitter, "God Bless America" and #osamaisdead started to trend just hours after the media broke the news. This case exposed a nationally beneficial use of two social networking websites. The sites allowed for news pertaining to the entire country to be spread more quickly than other news media outlets would have been able to spread it. On YouTube, President Barack Obama's speech about Osama bin Laden's death has gone viral with over 5,500,000 views and counting. Although many think of YouTube as a site to watch funny videos like Rebecca Black's "Friday," it is also a site that allows people to watch news clips or other important events that they missed. Not everyone was awake in the wee hours of the morning when President Obama's speech was replayed over and over on news stations, so

thanks to YouTube people can conveniently turn to the internet to watch the speech exactly as it was delivered hours, days, or even weeks before. Another substantive use of social networking sites lies in the business world. While watching TV commercials, pay close attention to the websites of the product or food that the commercial is trying to sell. Almost every other product's website is located at www.facebook.com/whatevertheyareselling. In Raleigh, local businesses have taken full advantage of the new use of social networking websites. Gena Chandler, a clothing store at North Hills, sends out Facebook updates to people who have "liked" their Facebook page, telling them about new clothing in their stores or discount days. The owners of Gena Chandler can more easily contact their shoppers to yield a better profit. Many other local businesses also have Twitter accounts to tell their customers about deals or specials. When there were questions concerning whether Beach Music was canceled at North Hills due to inclement weather on Thursday, April 28, people quickly turned to Facebook. The North Hills Facebook page had been updated just an hour before the planned event saying, "Beach Music is still on! Everyone come out!" There was no need for wondering people to track down a phone number, get in touch with the coordinator and ask over the phone whether Beach Music was still a go; people just had to hop on the Facebook page and there was all anyone needed to know. There is understandable reason, though, why parents think these websites are a waste of time. On Facebook, people write on their friends' or acquaintances' walls about inside jokes or funny things that have happened to them that day. They add pictures from the latest party, vacation, or formal event with their friends and then comment on how pretty the picture is or how someone in the background is making an unnoticed funny face. Twitter, which has only recently emerged at Ravenscroft, can easily be and is often used as a place for jokes and witty banter and essentially sharing with everyone just how funny you are (or think you are). However, what could be seen by adults as unnecessary fun that simply wastes time is really just one

aspect of these websites. Beyond the strong evidence that these sites are useful nationally and locally in the social, political, and economic sphere, these sites are at their core places for communication that allow people to get to know those they otherwise would never meet and keep in contact with those they would otherwise lose touch with. Facebook is arguably the only reason that Ravenscroft students can walk the halls and know the names of
the other kids that pass them, without ever having met each other. Each academic year, incoming freshman "friend" countless upperclassmen, unofficially adding their name and face to the student community. Social networking sites need to be taken more seriously by people in general. All of these different uses for Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other websites prove that they're no longer just websites used for entertaining
people when they have free time. Their many uses are significantly helpful to the general population, and for that these sites must be appreciated and their use must be respected. They're no longer websites just for students and young adults to post pictures on and talk with friends, they've grown into international platforms for marketing strategies, connections, and political and social activism. Altogether, it is a new form of media.

"Every once in a lifetime, that special class of students comes along. Regardless of personnel changes, it always has the same character, the same feel. If you're lucky, this group comes along only once in your career. This is the class that you know from the very beginning you will never, ever forget...no matter how hard I try." - Bill Pendergrass, MS/US Band Instructor
an experience you can only fully understand by being a part of it, and one that has greatly enriched the lives of the Class of 2011 band members. When the Class of 2011 band members think back on their experience they probably think of many things: their love-hate relationship with Mr.P, the rowdy trumpet section who between Baker Mills, Andrew Watters, former students Jared Banks, and the infamous Dewey Weaver kept Mr. P on the edge of having a complete meltdown, Bo Newcomb's everyday antics, and former student Jonathan Fields tearing up in class on a regular basis because of arguments with Mr. P. They'll also remember playing their favorite pieces � Resolution, Forge of the New Frontier, and Pirates of the Caribbean � or the one of the many antics pulled on poor Dewey, like the Dewey Sabotage on the way back from Busch Gardens when everyone drew and put stuff on him while he was asleep. As for the experience of concerts and competitions... After months of practice it all leads to one performance. Everyone is dressed in tuxedoes and black formal dresses with nerves running high. After sitting down in the tightly packed seats on the stage you look out and see over a hundred people waiting patiently to hear you play. You look at your pieces focusing on the sections where you are supposed to come in or maybe the portion in which you have a solo. You have practiced over and over, and you know it. But, you still pray that you do not mess up. You begin with a light warmup. You look up at Band Instructor Bill Pendergrass (Mr. P). By this point, the crowd is blurred by the bright lights shining right on you. Mr. P looks at you and makes a few comments then he counts down "12-1234." As you begin to play, the butterflies go away and you become so into the music that nothing else around you matters. The power of the sound radiates around you as it emanates from you. Before you know it, the song is over. You stand as the audience applauds the performance and a strong feeling of relief and accomplishment overwhelms you. This experience is just one of the many amazing feelings that a band member encounters. Back in the fourth grade, an intimidating and enthusiastic Mr. P got everyone started with the basics, but took no time to quickly start transforming his students into an award winning ensemble. It wasn't an easy task, though, and there were many people that couldn't handle the tough Mr. P. There have been many adventures and memories instilled in the lives of those band members, along with Mr. P, that will last a lifetime. An experience that stands out occurred in the spring of 2004 when the senior class was in 5th grade. The band was going on the highly anticipated Carowinds trip and arrived early in the morning to head to a competition and then to a day of fun at the theme park. Roll was taken and everyone was accounted for, so the charter bus headed out. After getting on 540, everyone looked out the window to see Mr. P speeding up beside us in a little car. No one thought much of it. He was waving rather frantically, so everyone just waved back. What we didn't realize was that Mr. P wasn't supposed to be in that car, and he wasn't waving at us to say "Hi." He was in the car because he had been left behind and was trying to wave us down so that the bus would pull over to let him board. Eventually the bus driver did pull over, and Mr. P hopped on. This incident became infamous to the band members and their parents, and sparked the idea for parents to write on their cars and make candy bars, signs and even pencils that said "Got P?" It's an experience that Mr. P will never live down. This class was also the only one to surprise Mr. P not once, but twice. The first time was a celebration for his birthday and the second was a surprise party that the parents had for him in the 8th grade to show their thanks for everything he had done for them and their children. When watching the slideshow of pictures throughout the years at the party, the tough Mr. P was brought to tears. The senior class, whether competing alone, with another class, or as a part of the Upper School Ensemble have come in 1st in every completion they have competed in since the fourth grade. This amazing achievement, along with all of the special experiences that have enriched the lives of each and every band member, can all be attributed to their devoted to their hard working, faithful, and caring band Instructor Mr. Bill Pendergrass. The band would not be what it is without him and everyone who has either been a part of the band or enjoyed hearing them play owes a great deal of thanks to Mr. P. I personally only had the privilege of being in the band from the 4th grade to the 9th grade, but those years left me with memories and experiences that I will cherish for a lifetime.

To everyone who has worked and put their time and effort into The Nevarmore with me this year, I would like to thank each and every one of you. I would not have been able to do half of the things we did with this year's paper without the help and support of Madeline Louden and Katie Kumbar. Whether it be for comic relief, mini YouTube jam sessions or help with a page layout, your support was always appreciated. Patrick Bailey, Esther Urios, Emily High, and all other students who participated outside of the classroom, I cannot thank you enough. Your help made my job as editor a millions time easier and more fun. I'd like to also thank Mr. Pruden for always reading over controverisal articles and editorials and giving his input. Without that, half of my articles would have been extremely lopsided. And last but not least, I'd like to thank Mrs. Velk. Your constant support and care has helped me to acheive everything I wanted to and beyond this year. I'll miss working on The Nevarmore so much next year and plan on making regular visits. Thank you for everything; words cannot describe how grateful I am. My opinion of the Urban Dictionary definition of Mrs. Velk: best teacher ever -- dang girl! Love always, Peyton Burgess

�My morals as a person won't change, my study habits will. �I'll become more independent and self sufficient and it'll be the time to figure out who I really am. �NEVER! �I think I won't put up with other people's crap as much as I did in high school because there will be so many more people and you have complete control over your group of friends, rather than kind of being forced into a clique like you are here.

he annual senior celebration day for the class of 2011 was on April 28th. The seniors spent their day off at Adventure Landing playing mini golf, laser tag, and riding go-carts. Overall, it was a pretty great day for seniors. The celebration day was meant to serve as the last outing together as a class, to have a day where everyone could just chill with no expectations of school, and other issues the seniors have faced throughout the year. To be able to take a day off and spend it doing pretty much nothing but play games and have a good time with friends was a great last adventure to take together. I won't forget what a memorable time it was to win the gocarting race, or the game of laser tag where it was girls vs. boys. The boys ended the game with the score of 14200 pts and the girls ended it with the score of 475 pts. Though the girls may have fallen a little short on their winnings, we can all say that we did our best, despite the fact that Spencer Cates seemed to make my vest time out every 2 seconds. Excited seniors wait for the bus to leave campus For the class of 2012, I hope you have as much fun as the for their celebration day. seniors had this year on your senior celebration day because those memories will never be forgotten.

successful season. Their toughest opponents have been Cardinal Gibbons (CG) and Durham Academy (DA). The girls beat DA while their only two losses have been to Cardinal Gibbons. Coach Norman mentions Caroline Margolis, '12, Kristine Kapatos, `11, Melissa Funsten, '12, and Danni Given, '13, who have all been remarkable this season. Norman says one important aspect of coaching is encouraging the older players to work with the younger players to help them improve their skills. She also says hard work during the off-season is necessary.

oach Sean Hardy reported that both Varsity Girls and Boys Track teams have met and exceeded this season's expectations. The boys originally saw this as a rebuilding year but have preformed better than expected, while the girls were looking at possibly repeating as Conference champs with a strong shot at winning States. Hardy now thinks that the girls are well on their way to achieving this goal. Durham Academy was the toughest opponent this season by far, but the girls managed to beat them and the boys nearly did the same, losing by only two points. The girls' strength this season was in the numbers of solid performers in each specialty. Their weakness proved to be executing relays. The boys' strength was their outstanding senior leadership while having the same weakness as girls, executing relays. Hardy said that Katie Kumbar, `11, established a new school record in the discus throw. Wesley Frazier also continued to dominate the middle and long distance events. Three boys stood out in Hardy's opinion. Nick Ritcher, `11, in shot put and discus and Temple Sloan, `11, in the 300m hurdles, and Karan Patel, `11, as a major contributor in the 400 dash (close to record-breaking.) Next year, Hardy will be working on his basic themes of mental toughness and the importance of self improvement.

ennis Coach Debbie Peek is very excited about this year's record of 14-3. While she expected a strong team, this team has exceeded her expectations. "This year's team exhibited strength, excellent team chemistry and mutual support," said Peek. The areas the team focused on included smart decision making in doubles, greater mental toughness, and managing emotions during stressful and controversial matches. The toughest opponents proved to be Providence Day and East Chapel Hill. Ravenscroft is the only team that beat East Chapel Hill, one of the strongest teams in 4A public schools across the state. Peek, says that she will continue to teach and "preach" the elements of smart play. Matt Wycoff, '12, is especially good at planning strategies to win his double matches, according to Peek. She added that the mental toughness award would have to go to Egan Hart who goes on the court to win. Peek hopes to duplicate this kind of winning record in years to come.

he experienced players on the baseball team this year really pitched in and helped the team to stay motivated and positive. With this season's 6-20 record, Coach Ned Gonet, stated that the team "didn't live up to their expectations. The challenging schedule including Forsyth Country Day and Cardinal Gibbons exposed the weaknesses of a young team." However, Gonet believes that the team's strong work ethic and understanding of what need to be done will be a positive influence for future seasons. Gonet believes "senior Michael Byman, Oscar Turner, and Sean Kelly, did a fine job of encouraging the younger players. They worked on their baseball IQ and game focus," said Gonet. Gonet is looking forward building on these skills next season.

his year's girl's soccer team has had a great season with one loss to Cardinal Gibbons. Their toughest opponent every year is Durham Academy and this year Ravenscroft won the game 1 to 0. Coach JJ Raabe says that next time she hopes that the team will have a more decisive win. This season the girl's main strength has been how hard the girls are willing to work during practice and actual games. Leah Ling, '11, especially stands out as goal keeper and Carolina Lindquist, '12, has been a contributor in many positions. Coach Raabe always emphasizes team play and believes strongly that her team has proven that they can only win when they play as a team and not just individual superstars.
h i l e struggling to not only play well individully, but also to play well as a team, the boys managed to rank first in the state. "Wilson Day ,`11, and Reeves Zaytoun, `11, really stand out and that is expected," says Coach Jimmy Cox. "Max Dearinger has really emerged as a great player, and James Turner has improved and started to make a major impact on our team." The team has been playing well this year despite challenges the boys faced when they played Campbell University and during the High School Invitational at Treyburn in Durham. The team appreciates Day's and Zaytoun's leadership. In Cox's words,"The main thing I have done to make next year a better season is to really encourage our young golfers, including ones who did not make the team, to reach their potentials and to tell them that we still expect to be a good team next year even though we're going to lose a lot of great players."

oach Kapatos reports that the boys lacrosse season is going very well. Charlotte schools have not been easy to go up against, but Ravenscroft has competed with them and only lost after a hard fight. Kapatos says that the team has great commitment, desire, and coachability. The team is young right now, but in the "long view," it is looking good. The whole team is a stand out for its unselfishness and willingness to support its members.

lthough the softball team started this season without a pitcher, the team's hitting skills are the strongest in the league. It has been a struggle to train a new player to pitch according to Allison Craig, the assistant softball coach. "A brand-new pitcher cannot pitch at the varsity level after only a couple of months. Cannon was definitely one of the strongest teams that we played offensively and defensively, but the girls competed well." This year the team is working with players on pitching skills and thinking about next year due to the fact they are losing six players. C a l l e y Mangum `13, stuck out "for being willing to take on the bulk of the pitching this year." Caroline Scales `13, also stood out "for being willing to play Pictures by Dr. Watters any position during a Page by Egan Hart game."
